Provo Fashion Week



Hey friends! Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. 
If you're a local to Utah, definitely mark this in your calendars, Provo Fashion Week.It will be such a fun event, you don't want to miss out! 
Provo Fashion Week was founded in Spring 2014 as a semi-annual event to bring together local independent fashion designers, fashion style bloggers, photographers, industry insiders, and fashion-lovers. The upcoming Fashion Week consists of private events, pop-up shops, and runway shows that will take place October 10th and 11th at the Provo City Library, 550 N University Ave, Provo, UT 84601. Spring 2015 Provo Fashion Week is scheduled for March.
Fall Provo Fashion Week consists of three runway shows – one on Friday evening, and two on Saturday. Pop-up shops featuring many of our independent designers along with multiple local boutiques will be open during our private event on Friday and will also be open to the public from 2:30pm-10:00pm on Saturday (except during show times). Tickets are available exclusively online and prices range from $10-20.
I probably go to see how is the new experience and also have fun with my sister in law. Definitely a fun activity to share with your girlfriends.

Fall Bucket List with your love one.


I’m so excited for this fall season! In Mexico City at this time of year we have beautiful sunsets and a lot of rain. But when I moved to Utah I learned that Autumn is a season to fall for. Is something in the air - in that beautiful crisp air that banishes the sweat of summer for another 9 months and begs me to curl up in a blanket or cuddle with me handsome husband by a fire.

This is our third fall together, Cam and I had a tough fall last year because I was in a car accident and I was recovering for almost 5 months. I made this list so we can enjoy every weekend together and use our time the best we can before thanksgiving. We live just ones!

I hope you get good ideas for you and your love one, or you and family, and don’t forget about friends.


•  Go to a pumpkin patch. I have no memory of a pumpkin patch and because in Mexico City we don’t have those, for some reason that just seems wrong so we need to go and enjoy the colors and the fun of it. This year we won't be picking up our pumpkin from the grocery store :) 
•  Hike a scenic trail. Cam and I spend lots of time outside but not to much exercising we aren't big into hiking but when we do it we enjoy it a lot so our motivation will be the colorful leaves, in Utah we have this amazing canyons that are picture perfect so I just feel we need to take advantage from it.
•  Get lost in a corn maze. Gone are the days of strategically planning who you go through with, but I have a feeling it will be just as fun and even more.
•  Explore a farmers market. I have diverse jams on my shopping list. I feel like jam should be something purchased only at a farmers market specially when I live 5 minutes walking distance from the garner village farmers market.
•  Bake a new recipe, together (bonus if it includes pumpkin, apple or cinnamon). I love cooking (something new since we got married), and Cam is quite the cook (just for breakfast tho), but it’s not something we enjoy occasionally together. Fall spices can fix this. 
•  Get cultured (play, orchestra, or dance performance). Fall marks the start of performing seasons for lots of companies and new exhibits at many museums. I'm hoping to get inspired by some tickets for a fun play.
•  Laugh at the zoo. Get tickets to the zoo and without the heat or the crowds, fall is the perfect time to use them. I imagine some animals are more fun to watch in the fall, less lethargic sans summer heat. 
•  Find a lake, wear a sweater, and play some Frisbee. There's no ocean here or that’s where I'd head. Large bodies of water are fun to cool off in during the summer, but I think they're equally as enjoyable under a layer of knit in a cool breeze. 
•  Read a book together. We both have goals to do a little more pleasure reading so I love this idea of reading the same book (either separately at the same time, out loud to each other, or listening to it on tape) so we can talk about it. 
•  Cuddle on the balcony. The cool evenings call for down comforters and night’s outdoors. I'm not sure we'll get much camping in this season.
•  Star gaze while drinking hot chocolate. If the hot chocolate is hazelnut or mint the night will be even better. 
•  Enjoy a final picnic. Picnics might sound summery but imagine pumpkin baked goods, oatmeal knit sweaters, and walnut salads surrounded by a sea of red and yellow leaves. It sounds like perfection to me.
•  Checking out a haunted house. We just when to this outdoor indoor hunted house with my sister in law and boyfriends and we had so much fun. Even though Cam pushed me, hug me, and scream all the time was a blast.
•  Football game. This is our Friday date, a Friday Night Lights kind of date. Our little bother is a senior in high school and he is in the football team, all my family in law loves football so is law for us to be there.
•  Fare states. The colors, smells, the food and the whole experience is so much fun!
•  Have a scary move night. We are watching a scary movie every weekend until Halloween and its fun when we do it with others. 
•  Horseback riding
•  Going on a hay ride
•  Apple picking/ apple cider mill visiting
•  Playing in the leaves
•  Dress in a couples costume
•  Make caramel apples
•  Go to a Halloween party
•  Host a chili cook-of
•  Shop for new Fall Clothes
•  Share stories by the bonfire
•  Watch Hocus Pocus
•  Carve a pumpkin
•  Host a (Halloween theme) baking-off
•  Take a foggy morning walk
•  Celebrate Dia de los muertos (set an ofrenda for my family)

We are so excited for this season!! Are you? 

What activities are on your to-do list this fall?

Stylish Autumn Trends


Buenos días y feliz de lunes! No podríamos estar más emocionados por que el otoño empieza oficialmente hoy! Es probablemente una de mis estaciones favoritas y un tiempo precioso aquí en Utah. Hoy estoy compartiendo las últimas tendencias de moda para este otoño.  Si quieres recibir esta temporada con estilo, hay bastantes tendencias para probar y experimentar. Estas son solo unas pocas, si quieres añadirlas a tu estilo esta temporada. 

Good morning and Happy Monday! We couldn't be more excited for fall to official start today! It’s probably one of my favorite seasons and a gorgeous time for here in Utah ! Today I'm sharing  an updated with upcoming trends. If you want embrace this new season in style, there are plenty of great trends to try out and experiment. Here are just a few if you want to make sure that you are prepared this season. 

Tartan 
Este patrón estará en todas partes y un armario sin  este  estilo no estará completo. Este año traten de ser tan atrevidas como puedan. Prueba un vestido o chamarra de piel o pantalones con un suéter negro. Si quieres dar una firme impresión prueba una camisa (tartán) con una falda de piel, medias y zapatillas. Este outfit definitivamente atraerá la atención. 


This pattern will be everywhere and having a wardrobe full of sexy clothes will not be complete without it. This year, try to be as daring as possible with tartan. Try out a cute dress with a zipped up leather jacket or a pair of pants with a grungy black sweater. If you really want to make a statement, try wearing a tartan shirt with a leather skirt, some tights along with a pair of heels. That will really bring you some attention! 

Leopard Print / Estampado de Leopardo 
Esta temporada, el estampado de leopardo es muy popular! Chamarras de leopardo o cardigán (estos son mis favoritos) son una necesidad y se ven fantásticos con un vestido negro y cabello recogido. Si necesitan un patrón para una bonita camisa no busques más que leopardo con unos pantalones vaqueros y zapatos negros.

This season, leopard print is pretty popular! Leopard print jackets  or my favorite cardigans are a must have and will look fantastic with a black dress and a nice bun. If you need a pattern for a t-shirt, then look no further than a leopard print pattern with a pair of jeans and black flats. 

Sparkle
Este año, la ropa con chispas (sparkles) es otra divertida opción. Traten de usar un bonito jersey o sudadera, ya sea con un lindo para de jeans o una falda negrea que se verá absolutamente adorable. 

This year, sparkle clothing is another fun option. Try wearing a nice sparkle pullover  or sweatshirt with either a cute pair of jeans or a black skirt and you will look absolutely adorable.

Ankle Boot / Botín                                                                                                                                      Este año, podrás ver un poco de botín (bota de tobillo). Estos botines son muy lindos y si buscas unos perfectos para tu guardarropa busca por unos con diseño que contrasten ya sea con estampado o con toque de color para que añada un acento con tu outfit.

This year, you will see quite a bit of the ankle boot. These little ones are very cute and if you're looking for the perfect pair for your wardrobe, look for a pair that has contrasting pattern or a hint of color for additional style. 

Smock Dress / Vestido Smock
Este otoño veras vestidos estilo bata (Smock) que suele ser un clásico para las chicas que les gusta el arte y  libertad (comodidad). Este vestido puede ser versátil y divertido. Traten uno estilo tartán, con estampado de leopardo o con un sparkle.

This Autumn is going to be all about smock dresses!  Try tartan, leopard or speckled smock dresses to roll this season styles into one.

70 Leather Skirt / Falda de Piel inspirada en los 70s
Para el otoño la falda de piel inspirada en los setentas será un elemento básico en tu guardarropa. La puedes combinar con una camisa tartán o un jersey con estampado. La falda por si misma atraerá la atención por sí sola.

For the perfect Autumn bottom essential, look no further than a 70's inspired leather skirt. This will look perfect with your tartan shirt or speckled pullover. Actually, it makes a statement all on its own!

Statement necklaces
Este tipo de collares comenzó a  hacer su aparición en las pasarelas; estos se pueden usar con blusas o playeras sencillas, son una forma divertida de que un outfit se vea elegante. No importa que sean cortos o gruesos; parece que permanecerán como tendencia por largo tiempo. Y también te permitirán demostrar tu personalidad.

This type of necklaces started making their appearance on runways; they can be worn with simple tops, are a fun way to make an outfit look mixed up yet still chic. No matter they are short or chunky; they can stay on the trend from long time, which is also a good way to show your personality. Besides, some punk styles are also popular choice to be applied into it. 
Asegúrense de verse genial esta temporada con estas tendencias.
